Examples of Original vs Digitally Altered Images

Modified on Tue, 17 Feb at 1:58 PM


At its core, Assembly Bill 723 explains the difference between a real, unaltered photo and one that has been digitally altered. The goal is not to limit creativity, but to make sure consumers know what is real and what has been edited. Agents deserve access to images that accurately represent what was captured.


If the photo is digitally altered you need to disclose it and provide access to the original photo. If you are not sure if the photo is altered, verify with photographer. If you still are not sure, do not use the photo.
